Abstract:

Analog rice is artificial rice product made from non rice and non wheat raw material by twin screw extruder. The objectives of this research were to formulate and to characterize rice analog made from a mixture of sorghum, corn, mocaf, maizena and aren sago. The method of rice analog production is hot extrusion by twin screw extruder. The research steps were formulation of analog rice, hedonic rating sensory evaluation to choose best sample, and characterization physico-chemical of best sample. The best two samples were choosen. They were analog rice made from sorghum flour 30% maizena 15% and aren sago 15% and analog rice made from mocaf 30% and maizena 30%. Both of best samples had higher carbohydrate and dietary fiber content than polished rice.
